His outright refusal to countenance an anti-Tory alliance amounts to suicide. I always appreciated his conviction and good sense on platforms in solidatiry with Latin America etc, but as a party leader he is a fucking womble.

It's outrageous that it's Caroline Lucas who is keeping tactical voting/alliance in the headlines rather than Corbyn (on C4 News yesterday she was plain speaking and excellent). On this and the Article 50 debacle he has totally lost my respect.

Clearly at some level (presumably unconscious) he doesn't want to win.

I'm very impressed from a skim read - Labour at last attending to the neoliberal elephants in the room. (Though I wish some of these policies had come out previously, when it seemed like Corbyn had no vote-winning headline policies, which can only have been damaging). The choice is starker than it has been in (my) memory.

Labour at 32% today, higher than Miliband. Thus proving that the real story here (as if anyone needed reminding) is not a Labour collapse, but the absorption by the Tories of the far right vote with Ukip's collapse. Hard to deal with the idea that Farage as leader would actually do some good by splitting the right wing vote.

At the manifesto press conference:
"Q: [From the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg] Can you confirm that you would spend more and tax more and borrow more?"
Jesus H Christ.

I'm hoping against hope that you're not right. Only way is for under-40s to turn out in droves on election day (or under 34, as apparently this is the tipping point from more-likely-to-vote Labour to Conservative. How depressing is that?). And this manifesto has given them very clear reasons to do so.
